Beware of Romance Scams

Loading Image...

Online dating scams are affecting members nationwide, resulting in financial losses that cannot be easily recouped.

Scammers take advantage of their victim’s emotional state and depend on garnering affection and attention to build trust with their victim.

If you think you are a victim of one — or online fraud — file a complaint with the #FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center at ic3.gov.

Proverbs of Banana 29:35-36 - if the hotness doesn't find you attractive here, the hotness there doesn't find you attractive. Other motivations are a factor.

Just too long a story, too many details, I could write a book about it. It was horrible , bank rupted him, lost a job, legal issues. It was just a nightmare all the way around.
